Chapter 1708: Retribution?
After all, he still doesn't know what connection Yu Hai has with Li Wei's case.
The discovery of monsters around Yu Hai does not mean that there are monsters around Li Wei.
The discovery of monsters around Yu Hai does not mean that Li Wei's death is related to monsters.
But...
If he understood Master Xiao correctly... "Li Wei was killed by a monster?"
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"This monster?"
Meng Jixi lowered his eyes and looked at the black umbrella he brought over.
He's not stupid.
He is also very observant.
He just vaguely saw Master Xiao talking to the umbrella.
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao had always known that Meng Jixi was observant.
It's not surprising that he knew Feitou Man was in the umbrella.
"Then..."
Meng Jixi looked at Xiao Xiao, "Why..."
He always has something to say.
But this time, he found that he was hesitant.
Xiao Xiao smiled knowingly, "You want to ask me, since I know that this monster killed Li Wei, why is this monster...still alive?"
"And, are you still with me?"
Meng Jixi opened his mouth.
In the end, he just nodded silently.
Weird isn't it?
Obviously, a few times before... Master Xiao didn't say it clearly... but those monsters were all solved by Master Xiao.
Why is it different this time?
There was a hint of thoughtfulness on his face.
But Master Xiao said...it was this monster that killed Li Wei.
……
There is no doubt about this.
……
"It's a flying-headed barbarian."
Xiao Xiao introduced the monster.
Meng Jixi blinked his eyes and said nothing.
He knew that Master Xiao was explaining to him.
"Flying head barbarians can possess humans."
"The human being possessed by him will turn into a withered skeleton within seven days."
Meng Jixi fully understood the cause of Li Wei's death.
He had been wondering before, even if Li Wei was killed by a monster, why would it be a white skeleton?
Is this what is called eating with only the bones left?
Now he knows.
It turns out that this is the characteristic of the monster, Feitouman?
Can you say that?
What a terrible trait.
Even if you don’t tell others that you are possessed, you will turn the host into this.
Meng Jixi paused.
In fact, after a person dies, he will turn into a withered skeleton over time.
This monster just brought the result forward.
However, even if we know that human beings will eventually turn into white bones.
Not the same.
Meng Jixi shook his head.
How is it that being turned into bones naturally is the same as being turned into bones on purpose?
Just like suicide and homicide are completely different.
"But, humans possessed by Feitouman."
Meng Jixi held his breath.
He knew the point was coming.
".They are all human beings who torture and kill birds and beasts and feed on them."
Meng Jixi breathed out slowly.
I had been holding my breath for a long time before.
He almost couldn't breathe.
Is that so?
Is Feitou Man taking revenge on those humans?
Those humans tortured and killed birds and beasts, and Feitouman possessed them. In the end.
Kill them.
So.
Meng Jixi murmured, "Did Li Wei suffer retribution?"
He never believed in ghosts and gods.
Is a staunch materialist.
However, after meeting Master Xiao, his previous persistence and understanding were shaken.
In the past, he would never have said the word "retribution".
When he was a child, he once witnessed a tragedy caused by superstition.
From then on, he hated superstition.
Although as he grows older, when it comes to superstition, he no longer shows the same disgust as he did when he was a child, and he has a better understanding of the theory of gods and ghosts. However, he still doesn't like superstition or things related to superstition.
There is even a physical aversion.
So when he first met Master Xiao, even though he knew that he was a friend of his brother and sister who he had grown up with, and a high-ranking person he fancied, his attitude was a bit bad.
Meng Jixi smiled bitterly when he thought about his doubts and doubts about Master Xiao at the beginning, and then looking at his trust and respect for Master Xiao now.
Things are really unpredictable.
Who knows what will happen in the future?
And what changes will happen to me?
"So to speak."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
He had the same idea as Meng Jixi.
"What about Yu Hai?"
Meng Jixi looked as if something suddenly occurred to him.
The volume was unintentionally a little too high.
"Is he going to turn into a withered skeleton too?!"
"Originally."
Xiao Xiao's words stunned Meng Jixi.
"Originally."
But he reacted quickly, "Master Xiao"
Did Master Xiao do something?
Otherwise, how could Yu Hai escape?
"I provide another way of punishment for Feitouman."
Xiao Xiao smiled, but looked at Meng Jixi seriously, "I said, hand Yu Hai to the police."
"Let the police punish him for the crime he committed."
Meng Jixi looked a little stunned.
"Axi."
Meng Jixi almost shouted out when she heard her name.
His heart couldn't help but beat heavily.
He would be really embarrassed if that happened.
He looked at Master Xiao.
Trying to calm down the turbulence in my heart.
There was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"Check Yu Hai."
Just Yu Hai.
It's not the relationship between Yu Hai and Li Wei.
It's Yu Hai's own situation.
"Check if he has poached rare birds?"
If this is confirmed, Yu Hai will face prison.
Depending on the quantity and type of Yu Hai's poaching, the jail time will be longer or shorter.
In this case, would Feitou Man be satisfied?
Yu Hai will probably remember this incident for the rest of his life. He spent one night in the police station because of poaching birds.
Presumably, he won't do it again.
Not necessarily because of genuine repentance.
Or maybe it's just because he doesn't want to come to the police station anymore.
But whatever the motivation, the result is the same.
Yu Hai will no longer poach birds.
"Poaching?"
Meng Jixi murmured in a low voice.
"Okay."
He nodded, "I understand."
"I'll check it out next time I get back to the bureau."
".It's pretty easy to talk to..."
Meng Jixi glanced at Black Umbrella again.
He thought that this kind of monster with the ability to take people's lives... should I say... would be even more stubborn?
Generally speaking, people who have their own standards are always more determined and will not change easily.
It won't change because of other people's words.
Monsters were the same, he thought.
No, monsters should be more persistent than humans.
After all, many monsters don't have as many "fancy thoughts" as humans do.
"I promise it-"
Xiao Xiao naturally heard Meng Jixi's whisper.
He shook his head slightly.
It's not easy to talk, but he made a promise.
"If it is not satisfied with the police's handling of Yu Hai."
Meng Jixi's eyebrows jumped.
I always feel like I vaguely guessed what Master Xiao is going to say next.
"Leave the remaining sea to its disposal."
really.
Meng Jixi was not surprised to hear what Master Xiao said next.
